  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scouts™. Let's get going.


    We are Scout Motors.

    Are you OK with Scout vehicles starting under $60K?

    Slate is RWD at launch, with AWD potentially being offered in the future. That immediately puts Slate in a different class than Scout.

    300 miles instead of 350?

    Instagram also has "more than 300 miles".

    300 miles instead of 350?

    I'm not taking it seriously. More than 300 is technically accurate. Everything is an estimate at this point. I was just letting everyone know that the "300 mile thing" isn't a one-time occurrence.

    300 miles has been mentioned on social media. Here's a recent post.

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    That feature would also come in handy because the Scouts are very wide and it would make it easier to get in and out of tight parking spaces

    That includes plug-in hybrids. Combining those with BEV's into an "electrified" category can be misleading, especially since many plug-in hybrid owners never plug them in and run them purely on gas.
